Hi Sudha,

Thanks for contacting Airship. My name is Chilun from Technical Support here at Airship and I would be happy to help with this.

Have you explored the information in the links below?

https://docs.airship.com/reference/integration/device-property-tags/#locale

https://docs.airship.com/reference/integration/device-property-tags/#tag-groups

You should be able to find language a language tag group called "ua_locale_language" that could be of use to you?

Please feel free to send me any follow-up questions and I'll gladly get back to you as soon as possible.

Kind regards,

Hi Chilun, 

Thank you for responding. Is this tag (ua_locale_language) based on the mobile setting. When does urban airship capture this information? Does UA create this tag as soon as app is installed by the user. What if user changes mobile language setting after app is installed. Does this tag get automatically updated?

Thanks and regards,

Sudha Mathew

Hi Sudha,

Here are the answers to your questions:

Q. Is this tag (ua_locale_language) based on the mobile setting?

A. That tag is what is referred to as a Device Property, which reads in the device's language and region.

Q. When does urban airship capture this information?

A. As soon as you assign values to the Device Property Tags - http://docs.urbanairship.com/reference/device-property-tags.html#location).

Q. Does UA create this tag as soon as app is installed by the user?

A. No, you have to firstly set it through the Device Property Tags. Once you have done that, the ua_locale_language tag group automatically applies tags to devices based on the device's locale - http://docs.urbanairship.com/reference/device-property-tags.html#location.

Q. What if user changes mobile language setting after app is installed; Does this tag get automatically updated?

A. Yes it does.
